Good Hotel, Needs Some Work Though

Starting with the good points, the hotel is a 5-10 minute walk to BTS station down an alleyway so is quiet at night, roof top pool and affordable room rate ($50/night) for a superior room (note no view with this room). I didn't get the breakfast after reading some of the reviews on here so can't comment. Free parking and tuktuk to the end of the road was helpful.
Unfortunately the wifi was hit and miss and would drop the connection or just stop working. There's two access points per floor and changing to the other one resolved the issue but was annoying having to change back and forth. There was a thunderstorm on my last night and the power went off twice, when they restore the power all the lights in the room turn on for a few seconds and go off. This happened at 2am and 4am and woke me up. I'm aware the hotel cannot control a power cut but the lights shouldn't come on when the power is restored. The pool bar was never attended and I tried the cloud nine sky bar one night at 7pm and it was empty and no cushions to sit on. The rooftop bar is great, maybe they could hire a part time bar tender and make it look like a proper bar?
Lastly, the room walls are paper thin and you can hear every time someone is trying to...Starting with the good points, the hotel is a 5-10 minute walk to BTS station down an alleyway so is quiet at night, roof top pool and affordable room rate ($50/night) for a superior room (note no view with this room).

Lastly, the room walls are paper thin and you can hear every time someone is trying to plug something in a room next door or they are watching TV. For some reason the TV volume doesn't go any quieter than 6 which is too noisy in my opinion.

Note: They are currently doing refurbishment work although this is meant to be completed by June 5th. Lastly, the lift is sooo slow.More

Situated at the end of an alley , 5 minutes walk from Nana Monorail station this hotel was just fine for my short stay, 2 nights in the heart of Bangkok.Hotel Solo is clean, relatively modern with, like the rest of Thailand, has staff who are so helpful and charming. The room is functional with a lift serving the upper floors. Walking distance to Soi Sukhumvit 4 and Nana Plaza or there are taxis sitting right across from the hotel. A two minute walk from the hotel there is an air conditioned mall with well know food outlets if that's your thing.We booked a trip to Bridge on River Kwai and input the Marion just along the alley as pick up only for the operator to call me to arrange pick up at Solo as the hotel is easily know.Worth considering a stay here for good location at a reasonable price.

I stayed at this Hotel for 3 nights. It was relatively affordable and the rooms were very nice. The rooftop pool is small but nice and there is a rooftop bar by the pool with happy hour prices. The breakfast is good. It is close enough to the nightlife but far enough away that it is quiet at night. There is a free tuk tuk from the hotel to the main street when it is not being used by others.

The Solo hotel located in Sukhumvit Soi 2 is the best Hotel I have experienced in Bangkok. So many great things to report about this hotel, first of all I made an error when booking my 1 night stay, I entered the wrong date and after I confirmed my payment I realised that it was the wrong date, so I contacted Ms May via email and informed her I had made an error and requested that I change the booking date, my request was accepted and the date changed at the same rate, so no extra cost I was extremely pleased as I wasn't sure whether I would be able to change my booking date so easily, I was very impressed at how quickly and easily this was resolved, thank you Ms Nan. As soon as I arrived to the hotel I was greeted very warmly and felt a lovely vibe, a great first impression. I stayed in room 201 which was amazing and so clean. The hotel is very fresh and clean, no unpleasant odours like cigarette smoke etc. No carpet, which was great, large room with and very modern, beautiful big window with a street view and bright but also dark with the curtains closed which is great. Cable tv on a large Samsung LCD flatscreen, Thai and English channels. The bed was so comfortable I didn't want to ever leave it. The bathroom was excellent, even the complimentary shampoo and conditioner felt and smelt amazing. Perfect size and spotlessly clean, even the towels were soft and fresh, this place is immaculate!. I had an amazing nights sleep which was uninterrupted and so quiet and comfortable. Aircon worked perfectly wifi was pretty much spot on! Didn't have time to eat here or swim but facilities are great. The staff were so friendly and caring and made me feel very welcome, even the taxi service to the airport was great I score solo hotel 10/10. I can't fault this place, you can guarantee I will be returning here location is excellent only 5 min walk to Soi Nana etc. Very safe and clean/comfortable hotel

Good basic hotel with nice pool and bar at the roof. Location is good, maybe bit far from Sukhumvit but not to far, 5 min walking. Staff is very helpfull, always asking if everything is ok and do you need anything.
